EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite print commemorates the historic wedding of Prince George, Duke of Kent, and Princess Marina of Greece, which took place on November 25, 1934. The special front cover of The Sketch magazine, dated December 5, 1934, captures the grandeur and elegance of the royal nuptials. Prince George, the youngest son of King George V and Queen Mary, married Princess Marina of Greece and Denmark at Westminster Abbey in London. The bride, a granddaughter of King Constantine I of Greece, was a popular and beloved figure in British society. Their marriage was a union of two royal families, bringing together the House of Glucksburg of Greece and the House of Windsor of the United Kingdom. The image on the cover of The Sketch showcases the newlyweds in their bridal finery, with the Duke in his military uniform and the Duchess wearing a stunning gown and veil adorned with pearls and diamonds. The couple's radiant smiles and the regal setting of the Abbey convey the joy and excitement of their special day. This print is a valuable historical document, providing a glimpse into the opulence and grandeur of a royal wedding in the 1930s. It is also a testament to the enduring bond between the British and Greek monarchies, which continues to be celebrated today.
